Weird logic TigerPaw. How would one hear of the SBA? Per your logic there would have to be some kind of network wouldn't there? Maybe a bad old girl's network or something.

"He implied that he had friends who told him the steps to take to start a business"

I thought he said he went to the SBA and it was a mess, then he went to a bank (private business) where it was not a mess. Sounded like he learned by doing, which is an excellent strategy for those who WANT to succeed.

"but I maintain that is a necessary function lest only members of the "club" be clued into the American dream"

I maintain that if the dems embraced the TRUTH, which is that all are "clued into the American dream" then these people you worry about would have a better chance. Unfortunately it is more popular to bash and blame the ones who do succeed and spread the lie that some rich white guy has taken it from you.

That is liberal rhetoric or faulty thinking. My husband and I started our own business, and with the guidance of my jack of all trades father in dealing with the State and Federal legalities, learned the rest on our own.

Well, I take that back, we do pay a competent CPA to do our books.

You have been hanging with the same guys forever haven't you?
